    Social LGBTQIA+

    So, after meeting someone very special whose trans themselves and them sort of breaking down hesitation I've had for a long time now, I've decided to just take the chance and transition. I always thought about it, wondering if I was really male. I never really was attached to the idea of...

    Circuit Gen 6 Random Battles Open - Round 2

    Suffering from real life issues last two weeks that are screwing up my schedule, so dropping out early on this one (2 tournaments in a week, that's a feelsbadman.). Good luck to everyone.

    Circuit Gen 9 Random Battle Swiss - Round 8

    Been having trouble being able to get my games done this week and last week due to some unforeseen life consequences, so I think I need to drop out at this stage of the tournament. Good luck to those who remain.

    I have no idea what most of these are, but the caps have convinced me. As a wise philosopher once said: It's 6 max move slots Partners In Crime Random Doubles Time Babyyy

    Social LGBTQIA+

    A bit of a change of topic, but I just wanted to say that I hope everyone is hanging in there, both mentally and physically. The recent UK ruling on differentiating between transgender women and biological women is truly unfortunate and I'm sure some will be disheartened by it; however, I have...

    Social LGBTQIA+

    First and foremost, good on you for beginning to understand yourself better. I'm sure it wasn't easy, but the fact you're feeling good about it is a positive sign. It's okay to feel as if a different part of you still exists, you don't have to feel forced to be one way or another at times. Give...

    Circuit Gen 9 Random Battle Swiss - Round 3

    Won in 3 vs Nacreous, ggs. Forgot to get the first game that I lost in as a replay, my bad. https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9randombattle-2327175612-bdrijxuakvsw7nhhvuam7fjfbiofhw6pw https://replay.pokemonshowdown.com/gen9randombattle-2327180008-o4i29qt6qegsc0grjh2qlk5mcccos9qpw

    Social LGBTQIA+

    I'm not a fan of normal romance in media, and it's in so many things at this point. It's very hard to find a show, movie, book, anime, or manga without a shoehorned romantic subplot for some reason or another. I'm always looking for things that center around LGBTQ+ representation or romance...

    Social LGBTQIA+

    Strong opinions are to be expected for political topics such as this, so people are going to become unsurprisingly a bit heated about them. Those among the LGBTQIA+ community in particular have been constantly barraged with an endless stream of bullshit that tries to belittle them and their...

    Social LGBTQIA+

    Yup, these people don't think "transgender" is a real concept, and they deny every part of it despite not understanding any of it. They take zero time to actually understand the incredibly nuanced science on what it means to be transgender. It's shameful, especially since they could educate...

    Social LGBTQIA+

    I just realized I went a bit too into politics rather than LGBTQIA+ in my previous posts, my apologies. I'm going to refocus a bit with agreeing completely with: There is no world in where transphobia should be tolerated. It is not a simple difference of opinion; it's the rights of other human...

    Circuit Gen 9 Random Battle Swiss - Round 2

    It seems I must unfortunately request an activity win against my opponent swolax21. I have not received a reply to my two scheduling attempts despite them being active today, and with their activity loss in the first round, it's hard for me to believe that they will reply in the next two days...
